Remarks

The text pointer annotation object extends the AnnTextObject class by providing an extra line that starts from one of the four corners of the bounding rectangle, around the text. The other endpoint of the line can be moved to point to anything on the underlying image. This extra endpoint may or may not be fixed, depending on the FixedPointer value. For more information, refer to Using Text in Annotation Object. For more information about the text pointer annotation object refer to AnnTextPointerObject. For more information about the automated text pointer annotation object, refer to Annotation Objects - Automated Features.
